Along with the Bulldogs, other members of the SEC are bowl bound and have a chance to add to their respective trophy cases. 1. Georgia Bulldogs (13-0) | Peach Bowl (-6.5) vs. Ohio State You can certainly make the case the…

The College Football Playoff field has been set and the big winner is clearly Ohio State, which didn't even capture its own division in the Big Ten. Thanks to USC's loss in the Pac-12 title game to Utah, the Buckeyes stole the No. 4 spot and will face No. 1 Georgia in the Peach Bowl on New Year's Eve, while No. 2 Michigan will take on No. 3 TCU in…

Tennessee football is most likely going to the Orange Bowl. With Utah's 47-24 win over No. 4 USC in the Pac-12 Championship game on Friday night, No. 5 Ohio State has a clear path to the College Football Playoff instead of stealing the Vols' Orange Bowl bid. No. 3 TCU lost to Kansas State in the Big 12 Championship on Saturday, to further boost…

The window has been opened for Ohio State to reach the College Football Playoff this season. In fact, it seems like a certainty that the Buckeyes will now be part of the four-team CFP field. On Friday night, USC fell to Utah 47-24 in the Pac-12 Championship Game at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. It was the Trojans' second loss of the season, both…

South Carolina currently is a hot commodity when it comes to bowl selection and rightfully so. The Gamecocks just had the best back-to-back weeks in program history, defeating then-No. 5 Tennessee, 63-38 in their home finale, and toppling rival Clemson (then-No. 7) on the road, 31-30, to finish 8-4. This stretch has energized the Carolina fan base…

To say Texas A&M threw a wrench into LSU's postseason plans with Saturday's 38-23 victory over the Tigers would be a gross understatement. Throwing a whole tool set into the Tigers' plans is more like it. The loss sent LSU tumbling out of College Football Playoff contention, from No. 5 in last week's rankings to No. 14 Tuesday. That also reduced…

Going into the final weekend of the college football regular season saw Penn State needing a little bit of help to move up in the College Football Playoff rankings enough to be more confident in receiving a shot to play in a New Years Six bowl game. With the Rose Bowl still on the table, barely, Penn State was looking to take care of…

Penn State wasn't thrilled with its place at No. 11 in last week's College Football Playoff rankings, which gave it a puzzling New Year's 6 bowl outlook. But that outlook became more favorable after Saturday's college football schedule. Penn State did its part Saturday to clear things, defeating Michigan State 35-16 to complete a 10-2 regular…

Before we get into the post-college football Week 12 projections, an apology. Last week, we projected the pride of Provo - the BYU Cougars - to face the Utah State Aggies in the Hawaii Bowl. Since the two teams met in late September, this simply cannot happen. Standard bowl season rules apply. We apologize profusely for an error that angered…

Just two weeks left in the 2022 College Football regular season. Gamecocks Scoop beat writer Alan Cole still maintains a narrow lead over his co-workers.

With one game left in the regular season, the college football bowl picture at the top of the Big Ten is becoming more clear. Michigan and Ohio State will play for the Big Ten East title and a spot in the Big Ten championship game and, likely, the College Football Playoff as well. Penn State and Iowa both sit at 9-2.
